How BASE Is Structured
BASE follows a simple, proven framework. You'll do compound lifts you repeat and progress. There is a clear weekly structure. We do accessories that support joints, posture, and longevity. We do finishers that challenge you without wrecking you
benefit-image-1
Who BASE Is For
BASE is for you if you already “work out” but aren’t getting stronger. It is for you if you do Pilates, Lagree, running, yoga and now you want real strength to support it. You’re probably busy and don’t want to overthink your training. You do not need to be advanced. You do need to be willing to show up consistently and trust the process.

WHY IT WORKS
Most people don’t need more exercises, they need better structure. BASE works because we prioritize the main lifts, progression is planned, volume and intensity are appropriate for real life and finishers are included strategically. The program respects recovery and consistency This is strength training done the right way.

Why BASE Is Different
Most programs focus on being entertaining. BASE chases results. Skill requires repetition. Progress requires structure. Results require patience. If you’re ready to stop bouncing between workouts and start building something solid, this is where you start.

VO2Max Training Week 1

Conditioning

A

Cycle 1 Phase 1 VO2Max Training

VO2Max is how much oxygen your body can use when you try your hardest, like when you’re sprinting. The higher your VO2Max, the stronger and healthier your heart and lungs are. This session is OPTIONAL but highly recommended. Pair it on a non-lifting day, or morning of a leg day with 6+ hours between sessions. Benefits: · Helps heart efficiency and can lower your HR at rest and during lifts. · Increases overall work capacity. · Makes you recover better and increases training quality. · Optimizes your Longevity and metabolism. Take 5:00–10:00 to warm-up. Do a freestyle mobility routine that gets your body loose and ready before starting Round 1. Cycle 1 Phase 1 0:30 HARD, 1:30 easy: 10 rounds This is HARD. This should feel almost unsustainable. Full sentences should not be possible during work intervals. Make a note how you feel at the end of the session.
